I cannot think of any reason they would do this unless they were just actively trying to kill people. We've known that asbestos is bad for 100 years and they finally banned the last kind of it very recently. This doesn't even make sense economically as it's not even in high demand. It would be cheaper and more economically viable to leave it exactly where it is. Next thing you know they are gonna start putting lead back into gasoline for literally no reason besides "fuck you."

    Every sign points to them actively trying to kill people.

    Yeah this is when the wealthy have decided the lower classes are expendable. They don't actually care about poor people having more babies. They just want rich people having more babies. They would like to see us gone because they think they can offset climate change by getting rid of a lot of us. Too bad for them they use ten times the resources as the bottom 50% of society.
